AP in Morocco

[MA & SY 34]

If the Embassy has the case that's good. It means you haven't been sent back to the USICS. Have they asked for your fiancé's passport yet? I'm sorry, I can't remember if you mentioned that.

We wish all things go alright for all of us insh'a allah. well, my fiance said the CO withdraw the copy of my passport and all visits stamps from the packet I-129 the one I sent here to Dallas when we started the process. so he didnt ask cuz he already has them.

no more docs requested for us, they put us under AP. we even dont know which kind of AP.

Did the CO ask for your fiancé's passport? The beneficiary?

They don't need your passport if you are the US citizen. When they approve your fiancé's visa they will ask for their passport because they have to physically add a stamp and paperwork to it.

Great! That's good news. If they kept his passport and still have the case there at the Embassy it should be a short AP period. If it's going to be longer or they will deny they wouldn't take the passport and they would keep the file.

Unfortunately there is no timeline on AP (as I've discovered myself) but if you haven't already I would email the Embassy every two/three weeks if your CEAC data doesn't change. That's what I'll be doing.

we are in the same boat, i have read some cases didn't keep their passport and then after a few weeks they called back to send the passport. lets pray and keep our finger crossed that doesn't take long time.

I tell u something try to call DOS and ask bout the visa status and whether the case in morocco or DC! GOOD LUCK to have a good answer from them.

feel free to ask anytime

Since they did not keep his passport, email them again and ask specifically if they still have his packet or if it has returned to the US

they asked my friend for an additional document and he found out the case was returned to the US / they did not wait for copy of his financee's IRS papers

this is where his case is

Immigrant Visa Case Number: CSBxxxxxxxxxxxx CSB Case Creation Date: 17-Jun-2014 Status Updated Date: 05-Jun-2015

Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days. Under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act, Immigrant Visas for "Diversity Visas" cannot be issued after September 30th of the year in which you were selected to apply for a Diversity Visa. For example, entrants into the Diversity Visa Program in Fall of 2011 were selected for Diversity Visa 2012 Program, and selectees MUST apply and receive their visa prior to September 30, 2012 otherwise they lose eligibility to receive a Diversity Immigrant Visa, regardless of additional administrative processing. In addition, please note that some immigrant visas may not be able to be issued if the annual numerical limit for that category has been reached.

For more information, please visit TRAVEL.STATE.GOV.

when sent back to the US it is allowed to die and nothing happens / if this is the case you 2 need to marry and file CR 1

I hope you 2 will be ok Incha allah

never heard they asked for Certificate of Celibacy at Casa / hard embassy

Hi guys,

We are just curious to ask about the status update under AP nonimmigrant visa after creation date and status date both have been changed to the same date of OCT 31st.

we have emailed the embassy couple times and they replied us twice and DOS update us about our status once which was last week. I've read that every time when we get a reply from the embassy or DOS answers our call the ceca should be updated too. in our case both replies from the embassy and the last time call with DOS nothing has been updated.

is that sign of a pending case can't be updated or the case is locked?

thnx for any sharing experience with us!

I'm not sure why both the Creation Date and Status Date are the same. Mine are different. Creation Date is the day it was submitted to NVC and Status Date shows the day after my fiancé's interview. Neither of these dates have changed for us and we submitted the one required document on Nov 10th and I emailed and received a reply on Nov 14th. The Status Date didn't change either of those times.

oic, it's exactly a black hole point the AP, we can't understand anything. so what im guessing when there is no update that it could be the case is pending or no one working on it which is not good sign and might take longer!

I am not a sit and wait kind of girl LOL.

When my fiancé dropped off the documents the Embassy wanted along with his passport Aramex said to call them in 10 days. That will be Saturday. My fiancé is going to call Aramex then. If we don't hear anything or see a change I'm going to email the Embassy on Monday (again) to find out the status.

We got two papers at the interview. One was the white 221-g stating we needed the certificate of celibacy and translation. The other was the "welcome to the US" with domestic violence pamphlet. The second paper said that he should receive his passport within a week after the interview or a week after submitting the required documents. It did say there could be more processing time needed, but I will be pointing out the one week part of the paper.

thats good to be a fighter for your life and dream and whoever fights for her/his dream will get it whether now or later, remember the universal listens to us that we wanna be with our loved ones let's pray that we hear good news as soon as possible.

well, do like we did keep emailing the embassy till they answer you back. i don't know how it works in morocco, but i guess there is nothing to do with Aramex cuz the might say they deliver it and a person from the embassy picked up the docs but the case person didnt look at the docs yet so thats why not update.

oic thats a good sign to give him welcome to the US" with domestic violence pamphlet, so i guess ur almost there after they look at the receiving docs from ur fiance. my fiance got the same pamphlet and kept his passport but since OCT 31st no update

however, i feel you are close to get your visa in DEC, finger crossed!

I've had a very good experience with the Embassy in regards to them replying to emails very quickly. I've emailed them twice about different matters and they have always replied the same day (normally within a few hours or less).

It's a fine line between reaching out too often and not reaching out. I'm trying to balance that so they hurry along with the review and don't think we're pushy so they "lose" our paperwork for a while.

that's good to have the balance between this and that, did your fiance send his passport back to the embassy with the missing docs?

Yes, he was asked to submit his passport with the documents. They've had that since last Thursday.
